Wow.
-
That’s a really weak call with everything they’ve let go this game.
-
How the hell do you shoot 48% from 3, but only 59% from the FT line?
-
Must be 11% closer
-
And ACU pulls off the upset of the Horns to spoil the Big 12’s unbeaten run. Nice going, Shaka.
-
Hahahahahahahahahahaha

He’s a gamer

Now game times
-
Top draft pick sits
-
All in all, a good (if scary) day for KU and alumni, including Tad Boyle at Colorado and Mark Turgeon at Maryland.
Another full day tomorrow, starting with Illinois-Loyola and Baylor-Wisconsin.
-
Texas just lost to a 14-seed that shot 29.9% from the field. lol
-
8:40! Good for me and good more importantly for Jalen
-
Kansas game Monday with USC will be at 8:40pm
-
Where are you looking for times?

@JAYHAWKFAN214 The late show !
-
-
Prime Time all across the USA
-
Perfect. It’ll give Jalen time to get there and settle in.
-
Check out I found wissox with his flag! On his post!
-
Karma for Shaka! Ha
-
Imagine having that roster with 3 possible draft picks and 3 others that will play professionally and lose in the first round. @BShark

7th, 8th best coach in the league?
-
About right
-
After what happened last night, does Shaka even keep his job at Texas? He’s yet to win a tournament game at Texas losing on a half court shot to Northern Iowa in 2016, blowing a big lead in 2018, and then losing to ACU last night.
Texas has their new arena coming in 2022 so Texas probably has a decision to make about Shaka’s future with the program.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 Ironic since he mostly got the job on the heels of his tournament success. That was an elite 8/final four caliber team.
Also funny that after Gonzaga’s blow out yesterday the tv kept talking about their streak of first round wins. 12 in a row I think. Second only too… Kansas of course. For all the moaning a lot of us did mid game yesterday about how this can’t be happening again, why does this always happen to us, yada yada yada, we’ve been better than most come March. Yes it helps to be favored in EVERY first round game but that’s not an accident. Self being labeled a great “regular season coach” is why we are always in such a good position to win some games this time of year.
I do think Texas will drop Shaka. The sports radio around here is not going to let this one go for a while and I don’t think the fans will either.

Illinois having trouble with Jokic lite right now. Go Ramblers

I think it heats up the seat up - lots of fans were already not happy. - - I bet he is getting roasted on their boards right now

This was Shaka best shot let’s see Coleman is gone – - -Kia Jones probably gonna test the waters anyway oh hell cant remember his name their Center is gone - -Jones is done isn’t he?
-
Bad things happen to teams that slap the floor
-
Illinois in BIG TIME trouble - gonna have to step it up down by 11 with 4:25 to go. - - Rafferty almost crying pleading with Illinois to win this game mercy pathetic - -got step it up - -and just about falling out of his chair every time they score lol
-
Look out - -Illinois down 9 with like 3:09 to go. - Boy this will screw with people I know no one picking Loyola over Illinois in the 2nd round lol - - bust them brackets
-
For Shaka to get canned, someone’s going to have to break the news to UT’s money people they have a basketball team.
Also Sister Jean may, in fact, be the lord
-
As a lifetime BIG fan I’m mildly embarrassed right now. Toughest league in the land we kept saying. But they’re toast. Just an awful performance by Illinois.
-
@FarmerJayhawk UT donors just got done ponying up about $350 million for a new basketball arena. They’re aware basketball exists and the new arena is the main reason why Shaka’s seat should be hotter than it was last year.
-
As a Chicagoan, I am at least glad they’re losing to a Chicago team. Got to love Loyola which was horribly under seeded. I could say Illinois deserved to play an easier 8 seed, but they played like crap and choked this away. Go sister Jean! And of course, Rock Chalk monday night!
-
Illinois is - - -DONE - - ya hear me - - DONE/COOKED/FINISHED mercy - -did they say BIG What ?

It’s smokin

And Sister Jean & the Ramblers upset the Illini. Lord have mercy !
(Equal time for the Baptists…Baylor up next. And Oral Roberts later.)
-
Any top level team needing a coach, looking at you Indiana should be burning up Porter Moser’s inbox right now.
-
Now I’m just saying not making Big out of it BUT Illinois if Okie State can take car of business today - -this at least improves Okie States chances of going deeper
-
That day I met Porter Moser two years ago and told him I still had college eligibility. I could’ve been out there today.
-
@jayballer67 Don’t know who to root for in that one. Oregon State named their court after longtime coach Ralph Miller, who was from Chanute and played for Phog Allen himself.
-
@wissox looked pretty athletic carrying that flag yesterday!
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 I’m aware. ‘Twas a joke my dude
-
Anybody got Wisconsin?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 It was a blast. I picked the Badgers in one of my brackets to beat Baylor but I really don’t think it’s happening.
